Created attachment 117612 [details] Impress layouts Description of problem/improve: To add to the latest enhancements to LO Impress would be great to have new layouts to create presentations or print notes and handouts. Always good to deliver more and better options for home or professional user, especially if they help to take action more quickly without making too many changes. Mockups: + Slide layouts: New creations and others based office software to be useful to create some fast sections. + Handout layouts: Improvements in lines to take quick notes (lighter color and line spacing 7mm, used in most notebooks). + Page notes Layouts: To print more efficiently speaking notes: in classic form, only page or card form. Additional info: The notes or handouts layouts are unique to the printing options and can not be customized before printing (customizing the notes page is very limited). MS Office solves this limitation by allowing export notes and handouts to a Word document (LO would be interesting to export directly to Draw) Thanks
Have you been in contact with the design team? https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design IRC and mailing list are fine.
About the slide layouts, it would be good if you gave titles to these various layouts, as well as labelling of what content the various sections of the layout would have in them. I'll let others give their opinions about the handout and notes layouts. :D
We're replacing our use of the 'ux-advise' component with a keyword: Component -> LibreOffice Add Keyword: needsUXEval [NinjaEdit]
Don't see much advantage of it- whitespace is your friend. But we should discuss it in the design meeting.
(In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #4) > Don't see much advantage of it- whitespace is your friend. I agree with you, however, the idea is not to impose a certain workflow to all users and in practice a blank slide is one more layout, so having more options will make the process easier for many users. Especially it would be good to include some proposals for Notes and Handout, which are printable and very useful options.
